Notable changes to readability will be documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project attempts to adhere to Semantic Versioning.
For the purposes of Semantic Versioning, the readability output object for a given input document is not considered a stable API. That is, minor version increments may change this output. Patch version increments will only do so in ways that are strict improvements (e.g. from empty strings or exceptions to something more reasonable).
- Fix compatibility with DOM implementations where the
childNodesproperty is not live.
- Typescript type definition file (
.d.ts).
-
isProbablyReaderablecan now take an optional options object to configure it, allowing you to specify the minimum content length, minimum score, and how to check if nodes are visible. -
Better support for deeply-nested content.
-
Readability is now more likely to keep tables of content.
-
Better support for content in
<code>tags. -
Readability (finally) no longer throws away all
<h1>tags.

The first version that was published on NPM.
Previously, we did not consistently version anything, nor did we publish to NPM.
At some point, we may wish to expand this changelog into the past.
